First impressions - I felt a little bit neglected on arrival; the reception desk was empty (but the receptionist arrived on the bell). The room was a bit niffy but nothing I couldn't get used to. But - it was cold - the room heating did not work; I had to sit in my coat all evening. (It was a cold and rainy winter's day outside). And the pillow on the bed was too plump to be comfortable. However - the restaurant connected to the hotel was very good indeed and very welcoming; the menu choice was a little restricted but the food excellent and good value. And the local beer that I consumed with the meal was outstanding. Would I stay here again? Yes - probably. I am sure that when the weather is good it would make an excellent base for exploring this lovely town.less

Good location, about 1 km to reach the Grote Markt,(centrum), church and shops and about 2.5 km to get to the Kazerne Dossin museum. I think it is a safe area. We had good buffet breakfast. Only con was the noise coming from the upper floor. We stayed in the room on the ground floor.less

It is hard for me to write a negative review about one of my favorite chain hotels but this hotel here is really bad. Air condition did not work. We opened the window but found Spiders on the inside and outside of the window and have the video and photos to prove it. We are stuck here as we got here a little late and it's hard to pick up and change the hotels in the middle of the night. Have not had a chance to try their restaurant or room service but the restaurant was closed when we got here at 9pm and so was the bar. Front desk did not take my reward number and told me to give it to the morning clerk. Beds are very low to the ground and very very soft and sagging as compared to other BW hotels we stayed in. Hard to find good hotels in Europe comparable to US standards or even Mexican standards. OK that is all good nightless

Small old room and A/C not working water in shower not hot
B/F Basic but with fresh orangejuice. We paid Euro 183 for our room very expensive for this kind of room. Parking was easy was lucky to have one of 3 spots on the canalside of the hotel. Wifi was good.less
